LOS ANGELES, CA (Jan. 3, 2017) – Hero Initiative, the charitable organization dedicated to helping veteran comic creators in medical or financial need, has a busy 2017 attending conventions all over the country. Hero will attend at least 20 major comic cons, and may add more as the year goes on!

Wherever possible, Hero Initiative will also bring its own special guests as well. Updates are constantly happening, so check out HeroInitiative.org/events for the latest!

The Hero Initiative is the first-ever federally chartered not-for-profit corporation dedicated strictly to helping comic book artists and craftsmen in need. Hero Initiative creates a financial safety net for yesterday’s creators who may need emergency medical aid, financial support for essentials of life, and an avenue back into paying work. It’s a chance for all of us to give back something to the people who have given us so much enjoyment.

Since its inception, The Hero Initiative has had the good fortune to grant over $950,000 to the comics veterans who have paved the way for those in the industry today. For more information, visit www.HeroInitiative.org or call 626-676-6354.
